Hope Ear Warmer
When the weather starts to get cold here in Michigan, one of my favorite accessories to help beat the chill is an ear warmer. I love that I can still wear my hair piled up all messy on the top of my head — or, if it’s a good hair day, down and wavy — because a cozy ear warmer will look great either way.

These ear warmers will be the perfect addition to any football game! You can make them in less than an hour, the perfect project to keep you warm during a game.
Chunky Crochet Ear Warmer
This pattern was inspired by Krista over at Rescued Paw Designs. She had made a super cute Crochet Ear Warmer Pattern and I just knew I had to make something similar with one of my favorite crochet stitches. The Moss Stitch is a go-to stitch when I’m making statement pieces like scarves, cowls and my latest slouchy beanie hat with a pompom. I also knew how much my girls would enjoy the “bow” look that happens when a headwrap is gathered in a certain spot. This little ear warmer worked up in less than 20 minutes!

Unforgettable Cables Ear Warmer
Don’t you hate typical crocheted headgear that allows wind and cold to enter through the gaps between stitches? This headband/ear warmer is different from most because it is double the thickness to create a denser, warmer fabric, but isn’t too bulky.
